Building a supplement brand sounds exciting—until you understand the real economics behind it. In this episode, Jake Hadlock, co‑founder of Nutrient, breaks down what it truly takes to manufacture products, manage capital, and scale in one of the most competitive industries in the country. We explore how trends like protein, clear whey, electrolytes, fiber, and even the rise of Ozempic are reshaping consumer behavior, and why so many founders underestimate the operational and financial demands of this space. Jake also shares the harsh reality of retail—how big‑box expansion can make or break a brand, why most DTC companies struggle to survive the transition, and what ultimately separates the few that last from the many that disappear.

Send us a textThe AMP kinase pathway's role in cellular energy sensing, nutrient allocation, and its connections to health practices like fasting, exercise, and diet.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Cellular energy basics: ATP/ADP/AMP as energy currencies; AMP kinase activates on low ATP to conserve and redirect resources, like a budget manager.AMP kinase mechanics: Heterotrimeric enzyme phosphorylating 100+ substrates; localizes dynamically in cytosol, mitochondria, nucleus to integrate signals.Nutrient detection: Senses fatty acids in fasting/ketogenic states, boosting fat oxidation and mitochondria independent of energy drops.Fasting/exercise impacts: Elevate AMP kinase for mitophagy, better fuel switching; mimic historical scarcity absent under modern constant feeding.mTOR relationship: AMP kinase inhibits mTOR to stop growth in low energy states; feedback loop disrupted by abundance, promoting tissue buildup.Disease links: Low AMP kinase in obesity/diabetes reduces flexibility; activation prevents cancer but may aid tumor survival in therapy.Drugs/diets: Metformin and GLP-1s like Ozempic activate AMP kinase for glucose control/weight loss; ketogenic diets activate at intermediate levels for fat efficiency.ABOUT THE GUEST: Gregory Steinberg, PhD is a Professor of Medicine at McMaster University and co-directs the Centre for Metabolism, Obesity, and Diabetes Research, focusing on cellular energy sensors like AMP kinase.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 260 | Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha MuruganSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners: SporesMD: Premium mushrooms products (gourmet mushrooms, nootropics, research).

The newest dietary guidelines have officially been released, and for the first time in a long time, the language is shifting toward what is real and truly health-promoting — what the Nutritional Therapy Association has been teaching since 1997. In this episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Jamie Belz breaks down what it means to "eat real food" and shares the NTA's longstanding, scientifically backed, ancestrally aligned, tried-and-true nutrition teachings. Jamie walks through how nutrition messaging became complicated, commercialized, and disconnected from human physiology, and how ultra-processed, hyper-palatable, food-like substances and industrial chemicals found in today's Standard American Diet have been engineered for profit, shelf stability, and addiction rather than nourishment. This episode brings clarity to what "eat real food" actually means in real life. You'll learn: What the new dietary guidelines say and what they still don't define clearly Why "permitted" or "regulated" does not mean safe or health-promoting How the GRAS system allows industrial chemicals into the food supply Why calories are fuel, while nutrients are information The NTA's clear definition of whole foods and nutrient-dense eating How bio-individuality explains why one diet never works for everyone The difference between macronutrients and micronutrients Why traditional fats support health and industrial seed oils undermine it How digestion, hydration, stress, and food preparation determine nourishment Why alcohol is never neutral when healing is the goal How to read ingredient labels without fear or obsession Jamie also connects the dots between modern food processing, chronic disease, metabolic dysfunction, mental health struggles, and the rising dependence on medications, while offering a grounded, hopeful path forward rooted in education and foundational health principles. This episode isn't about chasing trends or waiting for policy to catch up. It's about understanding nutrition TRUTH. If you're overwhelmed by nutrition advice, confused by labels, or tired of swinging between trends, this episode will help you simplify and reset. Listen now and return to the foundations that have supported real healing long before the guidelines caught up. Topics Covered: New dietary guidelines explained Whole foods vs ultra-processed foods Nutrient-dense eating Bio-individual nutrition Macronutrients and micronutrients Traditional fats and seed oils Food additives and GRAS Digestion and nutrient absorption Hydration and mineral balance Alcohol and metabolic health Foundations of Health Other Episodes and Resources Mentioned: "Dehydration Nation" episode Ep 82 - Total Load Theory Ep 81 - Wellness 101 Ep 80 - Digestive Hell Ep 79 - Optimal Digestion Ep 70 - Getting Started with Meal Planning and Eating Healthier Overall Ep 69 - Who Was Dr. Weston A Price?

In this episode, guest host Trey Allis chats with Dr. Lindsay Pease of the University of Minnesota Crookston. An Associate Professor and Extension Specialist in Nutrient and Water Management, Dr. Pease shares insights into her research on drainage, nutrient management, and soil health in northwestern Minnesota. Tracing her roots in the western Lake Erie basin in Ohio to her current work in the Red River Valley, Dr. Pease reflects on the similarities and differences between these two flat glacial landscapes. She shares her experience of getting “deeper and deeper into drainage” and how this interest brought her to her position in Crookston, MN.Since 2019, Dr. Pease has conducted a 60-acre field experiment, studying crop outcomes in alternating drained and undrained sections. Through extreme weather conditions, she's gathered valuable information about how tile drainage impacts water quality and crop performance. She shares the outcomes of this research and talks about what she's learned about tile drainage and its impacts on the health of soil, water, and different types of crops.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction00:48 - From one glacial lake bed to another02:14 - Focus on drainage and soil health03:39 - Unique challenges in northwestern Minnesota05:31 - Crop rotation and nutrient cycling08:33 - A 60-acre field experiment10:53 - Drainage and extreme weather patterns12:16 - Wet seasons and nitrogen loss13:37 - Testing in drought conditions16:00 - Sugar beet drainage comparisons19:36 - Phosphorus runoff and water quality22:34 - Conservation practices for runoff control26:06 - Controlled drainage and lift stations30:40 - Future research directions33:18 - Upcoming learning opportunities36:03 - Closing thoughtsRelated Content:The Water Table Episode #69: A City Kid's Impact on Water Management Education with Dr. Lindsay PeaseFind us on social media!Facebook Twitter InstagramListen on these podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube MusicYouTubeVisit our website to explore more episodes & water management education.
Peter Boockvar, Chief Investment Officer at One Point BFG Wealth Partners and author of The Boock Report, sees "bells ringing" on the AI tech trade with Oracle, CoreWeave, and Nvidia showing tiredness, and warns the question is whether the baton can be passed to other sectors without the market falling apart. His three favorite groups for 2026 are energy (where $60 oil is "one of the cheapest assets in the world" and he sees $70+ minimum), agriculture (fertilizer stocks like Mosaic and Nutrient), and beaten-down consumer staples offering "bond-like dividend yields with equity-like upside." On Venezuela, he disagrees with the oil-for-midterms thesis - it's really about stiff-arming China, Russia, and Iran, and won't impact oil supply for 5-10 years anyway. He's been trimming silver after its vertical move toward $100 but still likes gold driven by central bank buying and dollar diversification. His biggest concern: if we lose the AI trade, its dominance is so large it could take everything down with it.This episode is brought to you by VanEck.

Ready to stop playing food detective and actually feel good, enjoying food again? If you're exhausted from cutting out every food under the sun and still dealing with food sensitivities, this episode is for you. Jenn Trepeck is joined by the Autoimmunity Nutritionist, VJ Hamilton on Salad With a Side of Fries for an honest talk about gut health, chronic fatigue, and why that endless list of food sensitivities might not be about the food at all. VJ gets personal about her own autoimmune disease journey and shares the functional medicine secrets that have helped her and her clients ditch the restrictions and heal the root cause. Together, they break down nutrient depletion, inflammation management, digestive issues, and simple daily habits that support root cause healing without making you feel like a failure every time you eat.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why nutrient depletion and digestive issues are often the real culprits behind food sensitivities—not the foods themselves—and how to address nutrient absorption at the cellular level✅ How to support your gut health through simple daily practices like stewed apples, bone broth, and vagal tone exercises that regulate your immune system support✅ The connection between stress management, shallow breathing, and chronic fatigue, plus practical ways to calm your nervous system and improve digestion✅ When to temporarily eliminate trigger foods while working on root cause healing versus living in permanent inflammation management restriction modeThe Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Most people assume they're healthy until something breaks. The problem is that dysfunction shows up in your biology years before symptoms appear. I sat down with Dr. Paul Turek to break down what modern biomarkers actually reveal about your health, performance, and long term disease risk. We explore why “normal” lab ranges can be misleading, why guessing based on symptoms fails, and how early signs of metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies quietly shape how you feel, train, and age. This conversation is about testing and not guessing. We spoke about how to understand what's happening inside your body before problems become diagnosed. And about taking ownership of your health data at any age, not reacting once it's too late.

Nutrient density refers to the concentration of vitamins and minerals in crops relative to their yield. There are widespread claims that today's fruits, vegetables, and grains contain fewer micronutrients than in decades past, often linked to modern farming practices or soil degradation. This issue is important because if staple crops become less nutritious, it could silently undermine dietary quality and contribute to micronutrient deficiencies ("hidden hunger") in populations. Dr. Edward Joy is uniquely qualified to address this topic. As a senior research fellow in food systems and nutrition at Rothamsted Research and an associate professor at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, his work centers on the intersection of agriculture and nutrition. In this conversation, Dr. Joy draws on evidence from agronomy and public health to clarify whether the nutrient content of crops has indeed declined, what factors might be responsible (from soil health to plant breeding and climate change), and what we can do to improve the situation. The discussion emphasizes an evidence-based perspective on soil nutrients, crop varieties, and interventions, cutting through myths to identify real concerns and practical solutions.

He reveals why 95% of Americans are fiber deficient and how this single nutrient could be the key to longevity. Dr. B breaks down the science of the gut microbiome, explains why hyperpalatable foods force us to overeat 500 extra calories per day, and shares actionable strategies for rebuilding your gut health in as little as 3-5 days.Guest's socials + websiteInstagram: @theguthealthmd Website: https://theguthealthmd.com/ Kayla's social + website:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kaylabarnes/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@femalelongevityTwitter: https://x.com/femalelongevityWebsite: https://www.kaylabarnes.comSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4OLWWn22RGB0argbRPvAaQApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/longevity-optimization-with-kayla-barnes-lentz/id1591130227Follow Her Female Protocol: https://www.protocol.kaylabarnes.comBecome a Member of Kayla's Female Longevity Membership: https://kayla-barnes-lentz.circle.so/checkout/become-a-member
This week, in another holiday edition of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm highlighting a conversation with Dr. Rhonda Patrick, a leading expert in nutritional science and aging — a discussion that still feels incredibly important today. We dig into how hidden micronutrient deficiencies can influence metabolism, mood, longevity, and long-term health. Here's to supporting our health in the year ahead. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why vitamin D is essential for longevity, immune health, and mood • How magnesium influences metabolism, blood sugar, and brain function • Why even “healthy” diets can leave us undernourished • What it takes to test and personalize your micronutrient intake Better aging starts by giving your cells what they're missing. When your body has the right nutrients, it can repair, renew, and thrive at any stage of life. Here's to a healthy start to the new year — I'm excited for what we'll explore together.

Play is where development lives, even when it looks simple, repetitive, or messy. In this conversation, Annamarie von Firley joins me to unpack why play is essential to early brain development and why children need hands-on experiences far more than screens, flashcards, or noisy battery powered toys. We talk about how babies learn to operate their bodies, how repetition builds neural connections, and why dumping, filling, banging, sorting, and mouthing objects are critical stages of growth. Annamarie explains how the brain develops most rapidly from birth to age three, why fine motor and sensory experiences support later skills like writing and speech, and how intrinsic motivation is built when children are allowed to explore without constant adult direction. We also discuss toy safety, developmental appropriateness, and how parents can use everyday items at home to support learning without spending more money. This episode is a grounding reminder that play is not indulgent, chaotic, or optional. It is the work of childhood. Key Takeaways Play is how children build their brains, not something they do after learning is finished. Movement, repetition, and exploration are the engines of development. Most brain development happens before age three, making early play experiences critical for later learning, regulation, and coordination. Children learn by using their bodies, not by watching others perform tasks for them. Passive screen time does not build the same neural connections. Fine motor play supports later skills like writing, feeding, and speech. Touching, grasping, pinching, and manipulating objects matters. Repetition is not boredom. It is mastery. Children repeat actions because their brains are wiring new connections. Intrinsic motivation grows when children are allowed to explore freely without constant instruction, correction, or performance pressure. Everyday household items can be powerful developmental tools. Pots, lids, spoons, containers, and boxes often support richer learning than complex toys. Noisy, battery operated toys are often overstimulating and unnecessary, especially for children under three. Play engages multiple senses at once, which strengthens memory, learning, and emotional regulation. When play is treated as essential rather than optional, children gain confidence, curiosity, and a stronger foundation for lifelong learning.

"Should you get routine blood work?" seems like a straightforward question, but the answer lies in understanding how our bodies process nutrients and when testing actually provides meaningful information. Nutrient deficiencies can be surprisingly sneaky, calcium deficiencies might take decades to show up in blood tests while silently damaging bone health, and even B12 deficiencies can remain hidden for 6-12 months before symptoms emerge.For those following or transitioning to plant-based diets, there's particular interest in monitoring nutritional status, but ordering "everything" on a blood panel isn't always the right approach. When we test without specific reasons, we often find incidental fluctuations that trigger unnecessary follow-up procedures, creating anxiety and straining healthcare resources. A better strategy is targeted testing based on your specific risk factors, symptoms, and dietary patterns. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those taking medications like metformin or regular antacids, people with relevant family histories, and anyone on restrictive diets might benefit from more comprehensive screening.Before reaching for the needle, consider tracking your nutrition through tools like the Canadian Food Guide, Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen Checklist, or apps like Cronometer to identify potential gaps. When testing makes sense, a complete blood count and metabolic profile provide foundational information, while specific nutrient tests can be added based on individual needs. Remember that for plant-based eaters, B12 supplementation remains essential regardless of blood test results, some deficiencies simply take too long to appear in testing. The ultimate goal isn't just finding problems after they develop but preventing them through varied, nutrient-dense foods and lifestyle habits that support overall health.

Herniated discs are painful, frustrating, and surprisingly common, but what most people don't realize is how closely disc health is tied to lifestyle, nutrition, posture, and overall inflammation. In this episode, Dr. Holly Carling and Alicia break down the different types of herniated discs, why they happen, and how disc degeneration develops over time. Dr. Carling explains the major contributors such as dehydration and poor nutrition to smoking, inactivity, excess sugar, and spinal misalignment, and why supporting collagen, hydration, and nutrient density is essential for long-term disc health. You'll also learn how acupuncture works to reduce inflammation, relieve nerve compression, improve circulation, and support true healing rather than simply masking symptoms. In this episode: The four main types of herniated discs and how they present Why aging is not the only cause of disc degeneration The role of hydration, protein, vitamins, and minerals in disc repair How sugar accelerates collagen breakdown and joint degeneration Lifestyle factors that weaken discs (posture, smoking, inactivity, obesity) Nutrient deficiencies that impact bone, disc, and connective-tissue integrity How acupuncture reduces inflammation, pain, muscle tension, and nerve irritation Why holistic care (acupuncture + nutrition + supplementation) supports long-term healing For full show notes, resources and links head to: https://vitalhealthcda.com/podcasts/ The Vital Health for You Podcast is for everyone.

In this episode of the Female Health Solution Podcast, I break down one of the biggest frustrations women face: Your labs come back "normal," yet you still feel exhausted, inflamed, moody, or nothing like yourself, and no one can explain why. Here's what we cover: Why basic blood work misses the real problem Regular labs look for disease, not dysfunction. A standard CBC or hormone panel can't show how your hormones are produced, processed, or eliminated. Blood tests catch crises, not the early warning signs of perimenopause, adrenal burnout, or estrogen dominance. What DUTCH urine hormone testing reveals that blood work can't All three estrogens: E1, E2, and E3 Phase 1 and Phase 2 estrogen detox (your liver pathways) Methylation which is a major cause of PMS, migraines, brain fog, and mood swings Cortisol rhythm throughout the day Nutrient deficiencies and gut-related patterns This level of detail finally explains why you feel off and what to do about it. Real client stories Sara's story: Blood labs said "you're fine." Her DUTCH test showed exactly why she had migraines, poor sleep, and terrible PMS. Within months on a targeted plan, PMS dropped by 50 percent and her menstrual migraines disappeared. At her follow-up, her clinic literally told her, "We don't know how to read this." Jenna's story: A mom of five determined not to be a "half version" of herself. She researched every option and realized she would have to piece together three times the number of tests to get what DUTCH shows in one report. Once she saw her results, she finally had a roadmap instead of guessing. Why your hormone issues are never just one thing Your genetics, stress load, pregnancies, environmental toxins, sleep, and nutrient status all intersect. DUTCH shows which pieces are breaking down: production, processing, or elimination, so you stop guessing and start targeting the right areas. Why DUTCH is the roadmap your health has been missing This test shows: Where the "holes in your boat" actually are Which systems need support What is driving your symptoms And exactly what to do next Instead of random supplements, you get clarity. Ready for real answers? If you're tired of hearing "your labs are normal" while your body tells a different story, it's time to go deeper.

Nutrients are usually studied in isolation, yet synapses don't operate that way. This episode examines research showing that coordinated nutritional inputs can reshape synaptic proteins and neural firing patterns (effects that isolated inputs fail to produce). The shift isn't about stronger signaling, but more organized signaling within brain circuits.The goal: explain why biological systems respond to combinations rather than singles, how coordinated inputs influence synaptic receptors, protein synthesis, and network synchronization.00:00 Introduction to Neural Circuit Malfunctions00:39 Understanding Neural Communication01:38 Nutrient Interventions in Neural Circuits02:57 Research Findings on Nutrient Mixtures04:37 Mechanisms of the Mixture06:33 Practical Implications and Dietary Recommendations09:01 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsPMID: 41329641PMID: 38498094PMID: 40910091

Mandatory front-of-pack nutrient warning labels could prevent or delay more than 110,000 obesity-related deaths in England over the next two decades by helping people instantly identify and avoid unhealthy ultraprocessed foods Clear, mandatory warning symbols are nearly twice as effective as the U.K.'s current voluntary "traffic light" labels and driving widespread product reformulation by food companies Nutrient warnings work because they remove confusion — consumers make better choices in seconds, while manufacturers are pressured to eliminate or reduce harmful ingredients like added sugars and seed oils The most damaging ingredients found in packaged foods include vegetable oils high in linoleic acid (LA), high-fructose corn syrup, phosphates, carrageenan, and artificial colors and sweeteners — all of which disrupt metabolism, gut health, and energy production You can take control today by eliminating seed oils, reading ingredient lists, and rebuilding meals around whole foods and natural fats like grass fed butter, ghee, tallow, and coconut oil — a shift that restores mitochondrial function, reduces inflammation, and strengthens long-term metabolic health

A new brain-imaging meta-analysis has uncovered the first consistent biochemical signature across multiple anxiety disorders (a shift in a single molecule that moves in the opposite direction of every major psychiatric condition studied to date). Even more surprising, a separate study in young adults under metabolic strain reveals a nearly identical pattern emerging outside the brain. In this episode, we trace the science behind this unexpected overlap, follow the trail of this overworked molecule, and explore what these clues suggest about the hidden biology anxiety leaves behind.00:00 A New Chemical Clue in Anxiety Disorders00:33 How Common Anxiety Really Is — and Why It's Hard to Treat01:24 A Biochemical Pattern That Reverses Every Expectation02:52 The Molecule Behind the Cortical Signal04:26 What Chronic Stress Does to This Molecular Pathway08:13 How to Support the Brain Systems This Molecule Serves09:20 Final Thoughts: Caring for the Biology Behind AnxietyPMID: 40913113PMID: 26886842PMID: 19656836PMID: 41296930
5/8. Guano, Tragedy, and the Rise of Intensive Farming — Steven Moss — Moss discusses seabird guano (nutrient-rich droppings), first recognized as a valuable resource by the Incas and subsequently monetized by William Gibbs, who accumulated immense wealth trading guano from arid Peruvian islands. Moss emphasizes that guano harvesting occurred under tragic human conditions, with Chinese indentured laborers frequently dying during extraction operations. Mossnotes that declining guano availability stimulated the invention of synthetic fertilizers by Haber and Bosch, catalyzing the emergence of intensive chemical agriculture. Moss documents that high-intensity chemical farming, despite enabling global food production, precipitated catastrophic declines in bird and insect populations, a phenomenon extensively documented in Rachel Carson's seminal work Silent Spring. 1880

It's wild how easily alcohol becomes part of our routine, especially in midlife, yet so many women quietly wonder why their sleep, mood, or hormones suddenly feel out of sync. In this episode, we get real about what alcohol is actually doing behind the scenes and how a few simple nutrition shifts can change the way you feel (and even what you crave). I'm sitting down with Dr. Brooke Scheller, a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition and Founder of Functional Sobriety, whose work is helping women rethink their drinking habits with compassion and curiosity. Dr. Brooke opens up about her own sobriety journey and the surprising link she discovered between food and alcohol cravings. We break down the myth of "healthy" drinking, talk through why midlife hormones can make alcohol hit harder, and share the small swaps that make cutting back feel a lot less intimidating. You'll hear insights that make you feel empowered, not judged, about what's going on in your body and why giving yourself a little more support can make a huge difference in your energy, mood, and clarity.

Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, who co-discovered the C15 essential fatty acid, returns to the podcast to discuss her new book “The Longevity Nutrient: The Unexpected Fat That Holds the Key to Healthy Aging.” In The Longevity Nutrient, She unveils the science behind the first essential fatty acid to be discovered in nearly a hundred years. Research on this ingredient shows that is may be crucial for combating chronic aging-associated diseases. Dr. Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist with more than 80 peer-reviewed scientific publications and 70 patents. She is the co-founder and CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, a company that develops and sells health and wellness products based on the C15 fatty acid. She discovered the health benefits of C15 while working for the U.S. Navy to continually improve the long-term health of Navy bottlenose dolphins. While seeking to understand why some dolphins were aging at slower rates than others, Dr. Venn-Watson applied an advanced technology called metabolomics on archived dolphin serum to discover which molecules predicted the healthiest aging dolphins. Here, she discovered C15. ◘ Related Links: The Longevity Nutrient: The Unexpected Fat That Holds the Key to Healthy Aging By Stephanie Venn-Watson, https://bit.ly/4a43w75; GW Integrative Medicine podcast: What Do Dolphins Have to Do with Anti-aging?, https://bit.ly/4aljzxx ◘ Transcript bit.ly/3JoA2mz ◘ This podcast features the song “Follow Your Dreams” (freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Ho…ur_Dreams_1918) by Scott Holmes, available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial (01https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/) license. ◘ Disclaimer: The content and information shared in GW Integrative Medicine is for educational purposes only and should not be taken as medical advice.

For Audience Use code 'Podcast10' to get 10% OFF on any of our supplements at https://gladdenlongevityshop.com/ ! Takeaways Trevor Connor transitioned from professional cycling to studying nutrition. The Paleo diet emphasizes foods our ancestors evolved with. Nutrient density is more important than macronutrient ratios. Glycemic load is a key factor in dietary health. The glycocalyx plays a crucial role in vascular health. Antioxidants can hinder training adaptations if taken pre-exercise. Genetics influence how individuals respond to endurance training. Strength training may enhance antioxidant defenses more than endurance training. A balanced approach to diet and exercise is essential for health. You cannot out supplement a poor diet. You can't run your way out of a bad diet. A balanced approach to diet is crucial. Biology operates on the principle of balance. Variety in diet is essential for health. Understanding metabolic pathways is key to longevity. Genetic testing can guide dietary choices. Fueling during exercise should be based on individual needs. The sports nutrition world may promote unhealthy practices. Natural foods are better for health than processed sugars. Focus on overall health rather than just performance.

Here I explain the lymphatic system, a crucial bodily network for overall health and appearance. I explain how the lymphatic system works to remove cellular waste and fluid from your organs and combat infections. I provide science-based tools that support your lymphatic system for the sake of health and appearance, including: how to reduce fluid retention in your limbs, trunk or face, how to eliminate 'bags' under your eyes and brain fog, and how to improve cardiac health and longevity. Because your lymphatic system lacks a central pump, it needs the mechanical forces generated by specific types of bodily movement, breathing and pressure to circulate your lymph properly, and I explain how you can activate these. I also explain how to support optimal functioning of your glymphatic system, a brain- and spinal cord waste-clearing system active during sleep that is crucial for brain functioning and longevity, including to prevent dementia.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Hannah Penn, founder of HPPY Skin, to explore how a food-industry innovation is revolutionizing skincare. The technology—High Pressure Processing (HPP)—uses 87,000 psi of cold water pressure to preserve nutrients without heat or chemicals, unlocking the true power of botanicals while keeping their biochemical integrity intact.Inspired by her father's pioneering work with HPP in the food world, Penn saw the opportunity to apply the same science to skincare—where nutrient loss from traditional extraction is often overlooked. “We're not changing the ingredients,” she explains, “we're changing how they're processed.” The result is skincare that retains up to 10× more antioxidant content and delivers ingredients in their purest, most bioavailable form.Far from a “clean beauty” buzzword, HPPY Skin represents what Penn calls “Clean 2.0”—a science-first movement toward transparency, efficacy, and nutrient integrity. From early failed experiments to a patented process and the launch of BioBerry Infusion™, HPPY Skin's evolution embodies persistence, innovation, and data-backed results.Blending the expertise of food scientists, cosmetic chemists, and HPP engineers, Penn has built a cross-disciplinary team redefining what performance skincare looks like. “The beauty space doesn't need another white-labeled formula,” she says. “It needs innovation, quality, and excellence.”Tune in to hear how HPPY Skin is closing the nutrient gap in skincare—proving that sometimes, the future of beauty lies in a little pressure.SHOP HPPY Skin on their website, and visit their social media.CHAPTERS:0:02 – Introduction & Welcome0:44 – Family Innovation & Early Inspiration2:10 – Discovering HPP for Skincare3:00 – How High Pressure Processing Works6:05 – Testing & Scientific Validation9:39 – Cold Press vs HPP and Bioavailability10:44 – Rethinking Clean Beauty & True Innovation13:12 – From Trial and Error to Patented Process16:18 – Building a Multidisciplinary Team22:07 – Innovation, Impact & Consumer ResultsPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!
